I may be mistaken, but AFAIU this patch subtly changes the behavior of
vmpressure visible from the userspace: w/o this patch a userspace
process will only receive a notification for a memory cgroup only if
*this* memory cgroup calls reclaimer; with this patch userspace
notification will be issued even if reclaimer is invoked by any cgroup
up the hierarchy.
